I am concidering making a practice neck from an older squire i picked up some years ago. i drive a truck an want something to do while waiting to get a load. my idea is to remove the electronics and cut the body down to aprox 9" wide , keeping the bridge and neck, strings etc. intact. Has anybody heard of this or done it themselves?? comments welcome.

I have heard this being done before. I am also giving you links to outside pages to look at some examples. I am not endorsing this company, they are just convienant with pics.

I hope this is a better alternative than cutting into an old guitar. Sometimes those old guitars are diamonds in the ruff.

although, my intended victim is in dire need of a fret job and few other things. i am reconcidering my choice. the ones sold online at MF are either too expensive for my application or not tune-able. i am now thinking of going for a pawn shop clunker to use instead.
